  • Wind Power Plant with a plurality of Wind Power Devices and Method for Controlling the Wind Power Plant
    Publication number: 20120169052
    Abstract: A wind power plant for converting wind power of a wind field into electrical energy. The wind power plant includes at least one wind power device having a wind measurement device. Furthermore, the wind power plant comprises a central storage device in which wind profile patterns are stored in a wind profile pattern table. The wind measurement device predictively detects current wind measurement values. The wind power plant has a central pattern recognition device that correlates the current wind measurement values of the wind measurement device with the stored wind profile patterns of the wind profile pattern table. A central control device individually controls each single wind power device of the wind power plant as a function of a wind profile pattern determined by correlation.
